Kitty Collins is back in another explosive and highly entertaining plot. I was gripped by this story, there were so many twists and turns. I really enjoyed reading about Kitty and her life now, as well as old and new characters, it was so easy to read. Katy Brent knows how to write well, there are some hilarious moments in the plot, but also moments where you genuinely feel cross about that type of man and his opinions. This was so entertaining, and such a treat to be back with Kitty. It’s been left with potential for another book which is really exciting.

Kitty Collins is back with a bang, you can’t keep a good homicidal maniac down especially one who means well and only kills those who deserve it, her main criteria being the presence of a Y chromosome and misogynistic tendencies…... although she has been known to make an exception when the need arose IYKYK and if not well read the first book! She’s really tried hard to fight her murderous tendencies and settle down to a life of domestic bliss with the lovely but ultimately boring Charlie but that itch to kill is just growing stronger by the day and as for those help groups, well attending Angry Women Anonymous is only adding fuel to her fire as she sits listening to her fellow members and daydreaming how to bring about the demise of their unwitting spouses. She might’ve managed to resist the urge to kill again until the advent of her nemesis Blaze Bundy, a bigoted misogynist who spreads his toxic venom around in Kitty’s old stomping ground of social media and when he decides to focus his attentions on Kitty, well he’s about to find out she’s at her most dangerous when she’s cornered

Kitty, I’ve missed you, there is no doubting you have serious anger issues, but I’d still want to be friends with you. I Bet You’d Look Good in a Coffin was a riot from start to finish. The writing was deliciously dark with a fabulous flow, the dialogue cutting and sarcastic and the humour wickedly funny especially Kitty’s inner thought processes as she looked at someone and instantly started thinking up ways to end them. The plot itself was full of intrigue, twists, and turns and that ending, well consider me shocked as I definitely did not see that twist coming but it has left me hopeful that we haven’t heard the last of our favourite serial killer.

I enjoyed this one a lot better than the first! I felt as though the author had expanded on her “kitty” character from the first book. She was more a real person this time and I could defiantly connect with her a lot more.
I really enjoyed the storyline, it was fast paced and it was really nice seeing the kitty character evolve to being more than just a bored rich girl!
The connection between kitty and her mum, also their new family dynamics was fun to read about and also exciting to see where it goes in the future if the author chooses to write more!

Release Date - 30th January 2025

We’ve returned to the upper class, murderous Chelsea world of Kitty Collins following her murder spree and breakdown in book 1. This time she’s really trying to give up her killing ways but it doesn’t last for long…

Another strong book from Katy Brent in the ever growing female serial killer genre of books. Kitty of course can’t quite give up the murder, makes some very questionable decisions and mistakes along the way, but takes us for a lovely romp to France where her estranged mother is getting married to a much younger man… does he only want her for her money?

Just like the first this was good fun with some darker elements, will suit you if you like a bit of MIC or MAFS and all the drama that goes with it, as well as being ardently feminist at the same time 😂

And the ending has left things open for a follow up, can’t wait to see what Kitty does next.

What an incredible book. Katy just keeps getting better & better with each book.

Kitty brings laughter, drama, boss energy & raw emotion.

Killer or modern day hero? You decide.

Thank you for allowing me to read your work.

This was an amazing second book about Kitty. It was just as dark, witty and a bit bonkers. Kitty's inner monologue is one of the most entertaining that I've read! I was kept on the edge of my seat and needed to find out what was going to happen. It was an enjoyable stress and I did not see the twists coming. I would absolutely love there to be more books about kitty and her mad murderous adventures!

What a delight to jump back into the world of Kitty Collins and her wild antics. The first book in this series was so much fun (yes it's about a serial killer, but it's not that deep) and the second book lived up to my expectations.

At the start of the book I genuinely thought that maybe Kitty had turned over a new leaf and had given up on her vigilante ways, but in a twisted way, I was so happy when she gave in to her desire to save womankind. On paper, a female serial killer should make for a dark story, but there was so much comedy in this book that it almost takes the focus away from the murders. Kitty's one liners were everything and I found myself giggling through chapters at a time.

Of course, the plot wasn't realistic and there were details that I just could never see happening in real life. But the story was entertaining, funny and who can't love a woman who wants to do her part in tearing down the patriarchy. I love Kitty...IDST.

I adored this book and story many thanks to NetGalley and the publishers for the opportunity to read this book and I wish the author all the best

I read how to kill men and get away with it by Katy Brent a few years ago, which was a fun, comical read. So when I read that Kitty Collins is back, I couldn't wait to jump back in.

I bet you'd look good in a coffin, is the sequel to how to kill men and get away with it. This time, we see Kitty getting ready to celebrate the big 3-0 with the love of her life, Charlie. She hasn't murdered anyone for a considerable amount of time and feels like Charlie has helped her turn over a new leaf. However, suddenly she finds herself the target of a social media Influencer by the name of Blaze Bundy, a man who doesn't hide his hate for women and in fact shares his toxic ideologies with the world through his Instagram of just how women should be treated. Then her best friend, Tor, reveals she is dating again, the therapist she was seeing to help her get over her traumatic experience abroad. It's clear her therapist may be extorting her vulnerability, but Kitty doesn't know what to do. With all these factors at play, can she stay on the right side of the law this time.

I love the TV show, Dexter, and this book gives me serious Dexter vibes, but with a female. It brooches the whole idea of vigilantes and whether civilians should take the law into their own hands of the justice system fails. It does all this, as well as injecting a dose of humour to make it more light-hearted. The initial book was more about the kills. This one is much more character based as we see Kitty contemplate her life and how she has grown. But, things soon take a turn for the worst, and we slowly see the old Kitty appear, and we watch her slowly lose control of the environment around her.

This was a fun read with some great twists i didn't see coming. If you enjoyed Katy's first novel or are just into crime thrillers with a comedic twist, i highly recommend this. Although you don't need to read the first one to follow this book, i would recommend reading them in order for full enjoyment as it provides the full timeline.

Book two in the 'Kitty Collins' series is here, and what a hoot it is!

This book follows on from book one, 'How to Kill Men and Get Away With It'. You will not only need to read that book first to understand many of the comments, but there are also spoilers/recaps at the start of book two that would ruin the first for you. So read them in order, you won't regret it!

We join Kitty in this next instalment as two things happen:
1. An influencer is spreading misogynistic crapola online, testing Kitty's patience as well as her hold over her murderous tendencies.
2. Kitty is summoned to the South of France to watch her mother marry some idiot.

Kitty has been very well behaved recently... surely, the demise of one or two more of the male species wouldn't draw anyone's attention?

This was a great pick-me-up, laugh-out-loud read that I'm glad I got to experience.

I look forward to reading more from this author!


*I received an advance reader copy for free, and I'm voluntarily leaving a review*

This book continues the incredible journey of Kitty Collins and what a woman she is! I loved the style of writing and how you feel like Kitty is with you, talking to you and you are her friend. The book makes you feel seen as a woman and tackles the unspoken struggles of what it is like to be a woman. Every woman should read these books and it is a brilliant follow on from How To Kill Men and Get Away with it. The story is full of all the twists and turns you would expect and leaves you guessing right up until the end. I loved the exploration of the relationship between Kitty and her mother in this book as we got to understand their bond more and why their lives are the way they are. Left on a cliffhanger, I can't wait for the (hopefully!) inevitable third installment!

I absolutely adore Kitty, the book is fast-paced and had me hooked from the start.
Can Kitty really stop her murderous ways and live a normal life?
I blooming well hope not!
There are some truly laugh out loud moments that kept me turning the pages.
I do hope that there will be a next installment to this series.

Kitty Collins is back. Trying hard not to murder men who make her angry. Lots of twists for our unlikely heroine

Deliciously dark and hilarious, all while as acting as a bright spotlight on the real issues framing our criminal justice system.

I loved Kitty, and in this second instalment she is back - still as morally grey as she was originally, but somewhat - somehow - more understandable. The locations are changed up in this book and I thoroughly enjoyed the change in atmosphere! I hope Kitty has more stories to tell…

Kitty Collins was one of my favourite characters of 2022 and she’s back! Now loved up with partner Charlie and detoxing from serial murder she’s off to the South of France for her mother’s wedding. Will Katy be able to stop killing obnoxious men? Hilarious but including serious issues facing women today. Can’t wait for the next instalment.

First of all I would like to thank NetGalley and the publisher for this ARC in exchange for an honest review.

I'm a massive fan of Katy Brent and was so happy to see that she had done a sequel to How to Kill Men and Get Away With It.

It was still a really enjoyable story and feel like we got a better idea of Kitty Collin's past with her family and the relationships built around that. There wasn't quite as much killing in this book as the first one but it seemed to work with this story and showed character development.

I have to say I almost needed a quick recap of the events of the first book but didn't take long to jump back into the chaos.

I'm not sure if we will read about Kitty Collins again but I can't wait for what is next for this author.

A brilliant savage read 👏🏻

I love Brent’s dark humour. She just writes a killer female character so well.

I loved Kitty the moment I read book #1 and I was so excited when I saw there would be a book 2! It follows on nicely from the last book and although it’s definitely worth reading it, I wouldn’t say it was necessary to have read HTKMAGAWI.

There was so much drama in this book, I lapped it up! I was totally taken by surprise as the plot thickened, I didn’t guess anything 😂.

Short snappy chapters made it so easy to keep reading.

I enjoyed seeing a softer side to Kitty as she was trying to get sober (from killing) and how it was affecting her relationships.

The ending was mind blowing. It was so clever and I had absolutely no idea. I loved the red herrings laced throughout and they fooled me more than once.

A brilliant female vigilante character and I hope to god there’s more 👏🏻

Who'd have thought a book about a serial killer could be this light hearted. I found myself rooting for Kitty at every turn. I wish I'd read the previous books but still enjoyed this as a standalone. In a nutshell Kitty Collins is a serial killer - but only kills bad men. Men who hurt women in the main. She knows there won't be justice for their crimes so she avenges her friends. We see Kitty attending an Angry Woman's group as she tries to live life "murder sober". Living with her boyfriend Charlie has taken away most of her murder urges as she enjoys happiness for the first time. Invited to her mother's wedding in the south of France things take a murderous turn ... #netgalley #ibetyoudlookgoodinacoffin

I really enjoyed this book. I did not realise until I read a couple of other reviews that this was a follow up book. All credit to the author I did not realise this and so it did not detract from the story at all not knowing Kitty’s background. Kitty has been known to commit murders for, in her eyes, a very good reason. She cannot stand by and watch a friend, colleague etc be treated so badly by a man that she decides he needs to be out of the picture completely – murdered. She feels this is a service to women. Kitty meets the man of her dreams and decides that murder is not the way to go and becomes a “better” person – until a post on social media is seen. She is a great social media fan until she reads posts by a guy calling himself Blaze Bundy who seriously runs down women all the time and also gets a large following which Kitty cannot understand. As time continues she realises that maybe she does knows this guy and maybe a murder skills are needed again. Some of his posts seem directed at her. She fights her instinct to start her old career again. Carmella her mom who lives in the South of France is getting remarried and Kitty is to give her away. Kitty meet the prospective husband and decides that he is possibly Blaze Bundy and sets out to discover the truth. All sorts of dramas happen and it was a really good read. She finds her man in the end and I did see that coming.

Kitty is a retired social media influencer, meat packing princess and serial killer. Although one of those titles isn’t publicly known.

Kitty is getting itchy feet about some more personal justice in the world when she is attending her angry women’s group. The stories there are unfortunately common and inspires her next move.

Her partner, Charlie, is none the wiser to her alter ego. A loving, attentive man who runs a charity program helping others. They both get invited to her mother’s wedding at the most inopportune time for Kitty, she’s rather busy cleaning up.

A tale about justice, misogyny, family, and forgiveness.
